An Introduction to Kathmandu,
Nepal
Course #1: Child Wellbeing &
Development
• Among Asia’s poorest countries (HDI of 157 out of 187
countries), land-locked Nepal lacks universal access to health
care, compulsory education and essential legal protections for
children
• At the same time, resources for interventions in health and
education and for law enforcement are far below of what
would be needed
• Data on the success of existing
programs are often lacking and
the quantity and quality of the
available information are major
issues
Course #1: Child Wellbeing &
Development (cont.)
• Study interventions targeted at improving the quality of
life of children in Nepal focusing on three broad areas:
1.
2.
3.

Child health
Child work and economic well-being
Availability and quality of education

• After an introduction to the strategic planning and
management of development programs, you will be asked
to select one of these three topic areas for specialization
• Work in small groups to design and execute a feasibility
study for a prevention or intervention program in your
selected area of specialization
Course #2: Labor Migration &
Human Rights
• Nepal has long been a source country for international
labor migration with huge numbers of Nepali working in
India and the Gulf countries, among others
• Within Nepal, both adults and children migrate to urban
centers in search for income
• Labor exploitation is very common:
– Migrant children are systematically hired into brick manufacturing,
carpet weaving and other hazardous industries
– Domestic workers often work under slavery-like condition
– Both adult women and children are trafficked across the border into
commercial sexual exploitation in Indian cities
– Dalits (‘untouchables’) are especially vulnerable
Labor Migration & Human Rights
(cont.)
• Study the rights and protection of migrants, including
children
• Learn through visits to the International Labor Organization
(ILO) and other organizations, including highly effective local
projects against child trafficking and labor (Maiti Nepal,
CWIN, Goodweave, etc.)
• Working on small case studies,
propose solutions to specific
problems within the local
context
Course Logistics
• Teaching:
– Lectures, incl. guest speakers
(mostly in the mornings)
– Site visits/field trips, and group work (mostly
afternoons, sometimes all day)

• Housing and Meals:
– Single rooms at Hotel Encounter Nepal in
Thamel, Kathmandu
– Included meals: Breakfast, lunch, and two
coffee breaks
